   Unlike the
   Digital Telephony Bill, which was on greased skids, [...]

As far as I have been able to puzzle out, the source of this claim
were the same parties that wanted to work a "compromise".  I have
never really trusted its veracity.

There was lobbying by the FBI, to be sure, but was there not also
lobbying for previous such bills (including S.266)?
